It’s amazing what one finds when one decides to scour the realm of pop culture for an item that at first seemed to be so innocuous. Maybe a few spots here and there was the original thought. But oh no… as it turns out rings in one form or another have literally permeated every facet of media genre from everything including books, comics, movies, TV and even a few nestled in our own reality. Rings are everywhere, and once you crack open that can of worms it seems that so very many are present that a few have either gone into hiding (maybe not as popular as they once were) or have just been overshadowed by other, more well-known rings (think The Phantom). So after an exhausting search, I give you the definitive list of pop culture rings.
That Ring From El Superbeasto
We start off a little obscure. Why not? Obscurity is fun! There's a scene in this modern-day animated classic from Rob Zombie (The Haunted World of El Superbeasto), where Dr. Satan (Paul Giamatti) is about to offer his hand in marriage to Velvet Von Black (Rosario Dawson) when he finds that the ring he needs is stuck to the previous corpse he was attached to. A minor tussle ensues, including the aid of his monkey-genius (Tom Kenny). It's funny and it's a pretty pivotal scene, too.

Magnum, P.I.’s Ring
On the show Magnum, P.I. there is one object shared by the three main buddy characters: Magnum, T.C. and Rick all wear rings bearing the Croix de Lorraine insignia. This was explored slightly more in the final season.

Six-Pack Rings
If you're old enough, you remember that beer and pop cans used to come in a plastic yoke that had ring shapes so the beverages wouldn't fall out. These things were convenient, but they were also really bad for the environment. Evidently they began polluting bodies of water and ensnaring fish and sometimes birds and suffocating them. They made a little bit of a comeback, however, the more recent versions are made from a harder, more breakaway plastic.

Class Rings
Josten's. The name everyone knows when they begin thinking of class rings right about the time they're sophomores in high school. They really are kind of silly, because the rings consist of designs featuring what you plan to be when you graduate, or what you hope your career path will follow. In high school, kids want to be engineers and movie directors, but then reality sets in and class rings become harsh reminders of what actual life might have in store for us all. I wanted to be an astronaut. Guess who isn't an astronaut.

The Ring That Held The Resurrection Stone
Harry Potter discovers that the only way to finally bring Voldemort to his knees is to destroy all the Horcruxes, in which reside pieces of the Dark Lord's life essence. One of these Horcruxes is the Resurrection Stone, an object that allows the bearer to speak to the dead, but it can also create malevolent souls who can destroy the living. When Dumbledore first finds the Stone it has been set into a ring, and he foolishly uses it to communicate with his dead family. After being punished for his vanity, Harry is given the Deathly Hallow at his first ever Quidditch match inside the Golden Snitch. It was unable to be opened until Harry faced his most desperate time: his own death.

The Stone Cutter’s Ring (The Simpsons)
The long and short of it is they are rings worn by a secret society in The Simpsons that is not unlike the Free Masons/Illuminati in our own reality. Homer gains acceptance, but blows it just like everything else he does. The episode is from 1995, and is called "Homer the Great."
Stonecutter 560x416
Ringu (The Ring)
If you're even a little bit of a horror fan, chances are you've seen The Ring. Based on, and slightly better than, the Japanese flick called Ringu, the story follows a possessed video cassette that when played shows a glowing ring and immediately prompts a phone call proclaiming the viewer has seven days. The countdown begins and unless you decide to move to an impenetrable cave, Samara is going to crawl from the TV and kill you. To DEATH!

The Yellow and Green Rings (Narnia)
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, sometimes Wikipedia spells it out perfectly:
"In C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew, two magic rings, which take people to the Wood between the Worlds, a linking room between parallel universes, are central to the story; a yellow ring, when touched, sends a person to the Wood Between the Worlds, while a green ring is used from there to bring that person into a world of their choosing. These rings were created by the magician "Uncle Andrew" by the use of magical dust from Atlantis."
Rings
The Shadow’s Ring
The Shadow. From radio drama to film to TV series, he was the hidden crime fighter who 'knew what evil lurks in hearts of man'. He was, as his namesake implies, a shadowy figure who used an ability to cloud people's minds, but rather than hypnotically doing so, The Shadow's high-tech cloaking uses his girasol ring that is actually an exotic energy-emitter, with a power-source feeding energy to the "girasol" gem emitter. The invisibility mechanism acts on light waves' interaction with the meta-material. And The Shadow's girasol emits an aura of energy that engulfs his cloaking meta-material, creating his invisibility. Cool.

The Wonder Twin’s Rings
Who could possibly forget Zan and Jayna? While watching The Superfriends back in the day, these two alien teens (and their monkey, Gleek) would get to hangout with Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman and tag along on adventures! I loved these two and really dug the rings that they used to become something made from water (Zan), and any animal (Jayna). Granted they weren't always the most useful people on the team, but they certainly helped save the day a time or two. "Form of: An Ice Ladder! Shape of: A Tibetan Yak!"

The Mandarin’s Rings
When it comes to villains in any comic book universe, sometimes it's the most ridiculous that really sticks with an audience. Enter, The Mandarin, one of Iron Man's most destructive foes. Unfortunately for Stark, Mandarin is one badass dude who is strong enough without rings to actually do damage to armor just by punching it! But with his ten rings, he is nearly invulnerable: on his left hand he wears Ice Blast, Mento-Intensifier, Electro-Blast, Flame Blast, and White Light. On his right hand, Black Light, Disintegration Beam, Vortex Beam, Impact Beam, and Matter Rearranger. That's a lot of fire power.

Flash’s Ring
Though maybe not as iconic as some of the other comic book rings, The Flash's still played a prominent roll. In order to quickly undress and reapply his costume, Barry Allen (the second Flash) would keep it tucked away in a ring.
The Flashs Costume Ring
That Ring From Beetlejuice
In order for Beetlejuice to remain in the real world after being sprung from his world (thanks to saying his name three times) he has to marry a virgin. So, against her will (though she knows there is no other choice if she wants the Maitlands safe), Lydia Deetz becomes the unlucky bride. When Beetlejuice locates the ring, he has to pry it off a dead finger claiming, "She meant nothing to me, nothing..."

The Legion Flight Ring
So, you want to be able to fly in and out of the atmosphere? Well, if you're a superhero and you happen to be a member of the Legion of Superheroes, then that might be possible, even if you aren't someone like Superman or Martian Manhunter. How, you ask? Especially if your power doesn't grant you the ability to fly? Well, when you're issued the Legion Ring (the one with the 'L' emblazoned there-on) it's all good, because that's what the ring does, my friend. I have one, but I blame my inability to fly on... mass.
Legion Flight Ring 560x850
Ming’s Ring
Ming the Merciless is a vicious dude. He is the main villain to one Flash Gordon. Flash is 'just a man, with a man's courage' but also the ability (thanks to his past as a football player) to kick major ass. Ming, on the other hand, employs any number of troublesome weapons including his Weather Machine and his ring that can hypnotize and disintegrate folks. It's the last thing we see in the move when some unknown hands snatches it after Ming's 'suicide'. Who was it? Nobody knows...

The Ring of Cheops
There is a ring that exists on this planet that is largely considered the most priceless antique on earth. The ring of Suphis, or Cheops, King of Memphis, (who erected the Great Pyramid for his monument) is covered with hieroglyphics, figures of Isis, Osiris, the lotus, the crocodile, and the whole symbolic Egyptian mythology. This ring is now in New York in the possession of a famous collector.

Decoder Rings
When I was a kid (and much more so when my parents were kids), certain shows (both radio and TV) and even snacks offered games and challenges, like treasure hunts and puzzles, that required the use of a 'Decoder Ring' to assist in the cracking of said code. One of the most famous in movie history was the ring that Ralphie used in A Christmas Story during the airing of the radio play 'Little Orphan Annie'. He was somewhat irked to discover that it only informed him to 'Be Sure To Drink Your Ovaltine'.
Decoder 560x420
Underdog’s Ring
In the original run of Underdog, Shoeshine Boy kept the pill that granted him his powers in a ring he wore. "The secret compartment of my ring I fill / With an Underdog super energy pill". However, the scenes of him actually taking the pill were quickly stopped for fear that impressionable youths would start popping pills in hopes of gaining powers. The worst part is that in the release of the DVD sets, which are supposed to be uncut and unchanged in my opinion, have replaced 'energy' with the word 'vitamin'. A small thing, I know, but ridiculous none the less.

The Rings of Dante’s Inferno
Represented by the Nine Circles (or Rings) of Hell journeyed by Dante in the Divine Comedy:
Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Anger, Heresy, Violence, Fraud, and Treachery.

Dracula’s Ring
Simply put it's the ring worn originally by Bela Lugosi's Dracula. Though not seen as a close up, it was designed with the arms crest of Dracula's lineage. It's even referenced in Castlevania and used as one of the items with which to destroy the titular vampire.

The Schwartz Rings
How does a movie director homage the Light Sabers from Lucas's Star Wars films without directly ripping them off? Well, if you're Mel Brooks and you're making Spaceballs, you make the Force the Schwartz and you make the sabers rings! "I see your Schwartz is a big as mine!"

The Godfather’s Ring
If you're ever lucky enough to actually meet The Godfather, it's best that you kiss his offered pinkie ring or you might end up sleeping with the fishes.

The Olympic Rings
The symbol was originally designed in 1912 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games. It is said that each color of the rings was represented by each of the original competing country's flag colors. This has changed over the years and has been amended to mean that each ring represents all the colors of anyone country who wants to compete. Either way, the symbol is iconic.
Olympics 560x411
Green Lantern’s Power Ring
Of all the classic and most iconic of the comic book character's rings, Green Lantern's stands out above the rest. His entire power base revolves around the ring he wears through which those powers are focused. Sure, the wearer has to be picked by the Corps, but it's still the ring that enhances the wearer's already strong sense of being and heroism. The ring most prominently features the insignia of a lantern, which represents the lantern used as the ring's battery. They are epic and have gone on to spawn any number of colored rings and bearers each representing a specific allegiance.

The One Ring
Here it is. The most iconic and well-known ring of all time. For years, one had to have read The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings books from J.R.R. Tolkein to have known just what 'The One Ring' was, but soon,Ralph Bakshi and eventually Peter Jackson, brought the ring to a whole new audience and now it sits as perhaps the most traveled and important piece of fictional jewelry of all time.

Maul and his first Jedi target, Eldra Kaitis
On his personal quest for the auctioned Jedi Padawan Eldra Kaitis, Maul recruits bounty hunters on Nar Shaddaa.

The Jedi, as well as the newly elected Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, watch on as a new era of peace is celebrated between the Gungan and Naboo societies.
The Jedi High Council promotes Obi-Wan Kenobi to the rank of Jedi Knight and permits him to train Anakin Skywalker as a Jedi per the late Qui-Gon Jinn's wishes. The Council, the Chancellor, the Naboo leadership, Kenobi, and Skywalker later attend the funeral of Qui-Gon Jinn and a victory parade at Theed.[93] The Gungans host a funeral at their sacred place for their fallen warriors afterwards.[132]
Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas foresees an upcoming full-scale conflict, but is accused of war-mongering and removed from the Jedi Council. He secretly commissions the Kaminoans of the distant planet Kamino to grow a clone army for the Republic.[101][17]
Hired by the Sith Lord Tyranus, the Pyke Syndicate murders Sifo-Dyas, who was sent by the Jedi Council to resolve a tribal dispute on Felucia but instead secretly went to negotiate with the Pykes on Oba Diah along with Chancellor Valorum's aide, Silman, per the Chancellor's initiative. Silman is secretly captured by the Pykes for leverage against Tyranus, and the Sith Lord fakes Sifo-Dyas' death on Felucia during the tribal conflict.[304]
Lord Tyranus hires bounty hunter Jango Fett as the Kaminoans' clone template based on Fett's reputation.[305][195]
Sidious' new apprentice, Lord Tyranus, hires the infamous bounty hunter Jango Fett for the creation of a clone army of the Republic to orchestrate a costly galactic war.
Tyranus is sent by Darth Sidious to secure a business arrangement with the weapons-dealing Kaldana Syndicate on Sullust. Tyranus does so while also establishing a business agreement between Serenno and Sullust's SoroSuub Corporation as Count Dooku. Having been sent by the Jedi Council to investigate the underground weapons-dealing on the planet for the Republic, Jedi Knight Jak'zin is killed by Dooku during the latter's mission to Sullust.[306]
Under the control of the Sith, the clones from the template of Fett had behavioral modification biochips inserted which would activate Protocol 66 under the command of the Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic.[304]
Boba Fett is born[307] a clone of Jango Fett on Kamino originally under the name Alpha[308]. Per Jango's request, Boba is the only clone completely unaltered by the Kaminoans,[101] and as the son of Jango, the clone Fett is trained by his father as a bounty hunter.[57]
Inhibitor chips overrode clones' wills, submitting them to the whim of the Supreme Chancellor.
Omega is born after Alpha. Her genome is near-indentical to that of Jango Fett and Alpha. Unlike Boba, Omega is kept on Kamino and raised by Nala Se as her assistant.[308]

Secret mission to rebuild the Jedi Order[7]
The Inquisitorius senses an echo in the Force from the former Padawan Cal Kestis in hiding on Bracca, and the Second Sister and Ninth Sister move to apprehend him. Following a tense confrontation, Kestis escapes the planet aboard the Stinger Mantis.[7]
Cal Kestis sets out with former Jedi Cere Junda, pilot Greez Dritus, and the droid BD-1 to recover a holocron containing a list of Force-sensitive children sealed within a Vault on Bogano by the late Jedi Master Eno Cordova. Following Cordova's instructions to open the Vault, Kestis travels to Zeffo, where a Project Auger outpost, by order of the Emperor himself, excavates the tombs of Zeffo Sages Eilram and Miktrull. Kestis is then tasked to find Chieftain Tarfful, a friend of Cordova's.[7]
Saw Gerrera and the Partisans attack an Imperial Refinery on Kashyyyk. With the help of Cal Kestis, they successfully free numerous Wookiee slaves, though Gerrera retreated from the planet in thinking that Kashyyyk was already lost. Several Partisan fighters choose to stay; led by Mari Kosan, they flee into the Shadowlands to join Tarfful's resistance.[7]
Kestis, in addition to having a large bounty placed on him by the Haxion Brood, is wanted by the Imperial Inquisition. Nevertheless, the Jedi learns to let go of his fear as well as to keep rising up from the Origin Tree.
Kestis finds that the Bogano Vault could be unlocked by an astrium from the Tomb of Kujet on Dathomir. However, the Jedi is accosted by the nightsister Merrin and the mad Jedi Taron Malicos on Dathomir. Eventually arriving at Kujet's tomb, Kestis is overwhelmed by regret and anger over his past and loses control, destroying his master's lightsaber.[7]
Survivors of Sith purges accept and let go of their past suffering, moving on to rise and work to restore their kind with respect to choice and the trust in the Force.
After building a new lightsaber on Imperial Ilum, which now houses a world-wide artificial trench, Cal Kestis returns to Dathomir, where he and Merrin realise that they were both survivors who shared a similar past of loss and aim to restore their kind. They thus join forces, allowing the intricate Force of Dathomir to consume the fallen Taron Malicos.[7]
While Merrin expresses her concern that recruiting the children of the Force would instead endanger the potential Jedi, Kestis presses on his quest for the holocron at Bogano as the Empire approaches. While Kestis overpowers the Second Sister, the echo of her past and suffering overwhelms Kestis, allowing the Inquisitor to steal Eno Cordova's holocron for the Empire.[7]
Cal Kestis and Cere Junda discuss the Second Sister's past, with Junda accepting the pain of the past, letting go and willing to move on. Kestis is knighted, and together, the two Jedi storm the Fortress Inquisitorius on Nur to recover Eno Cordova's holocron. The Second Sister dies, though not before she sees pass her hate for Junda's failure regarding Padawans, instead desiring her kind to be avenged. Kestis and Junda barely escape the facility with their lives and the holocron, and back aboard the Stinger Mantis, Kestis destroys the holocron; the Jedi chooses to let go of forging the destinies of children, instead letting their destinies lie before the will of the Force.[7]

Vader sees that Thrawn's true loyalty lies with Chiss, but despite their differences, Vader makes recommendations on Thrawn's TIE Defender program, which rivalled against Krennic's Death Star project that was endorsed by Tarkin, the Emperor, and Vader himself.

Hera Syndulla attacks the Imperial blockade over Lothal with twenty-four T-65B X-wing starfighters, attempting to raid Lotha's TIE Defender assembly line. However, Grand Admiral Thrawn's blockade shoots down all of the rebel fighters.[652]
Grand Moff Tarkin informs Thrawn that his TIE Defender program has been halted in favor of Krennic's Project Stardust. Considering that the loss of his TIE Defender program would outweight the loss of Hera Syndulla, Thrawn leaves Lothal to the incompetence of Governor Pryce to plead his case to Emperor Palpatine.[653]
Thrawn agrees to handle a gralloc problem for Krennic's Project Stardust in return for the continuation of funding for the TIE Defender program. While handling the gralloc infestation, Thrawn and the Chimaera traces a missing freighter to find that it had been raided by the Grysks. While battling a Grysk warship at the scene, the Chimaera is joined by Chiss Ascendancy forces led by Admiral Ar'alani. Thrawn reunites with the Chiss as well as Eli Vanto.[653]
From the remains of the battle, Thrawn finds Un'hee, a Chiss girl who was kidnapped by the Grysk for her Force-sensitivity and was forced to serve as a navigator. Eli Vanto finds that many of the missing Imperial transports carried foodstuff which is used to feed Wookiee prisoners working on Project Stardust. They deduce that Imperial Governor Haveland had purposely arranged for similar disappearances as part of Project Stardust. To be rid of Brierly Ronan, a troublesome Imperial officer, Thrawn sends him and Vanto investigate Haveland's Aloxor system.[653]
Thrawn's friend, Eli Vanto, serving under Admiral Ar'alani of the Chiss Ascendancy.
Dayja Collerand, sent by the Security Bureau's Colonel Yularen, joins Vanto on Aloxor. Processing gathered intelligence, Thrawn deduces that Grand Admiral Balanhai Savit was responsible for stealing supplies from Project Stardust in the guise of grolloc infestations. When confronted, Savit explains that he did so because he believed that Stardust was a waste of resources, and that he hoped to funnel the stolen supplies to aid the Imperial Starfleet.[653]
Grand Admirals Thrawn and Savit thus commit their forces in a non-lethal battle. Savit is defeated and captured by the Chimaera, Collerand, Ronan, Captain Boulag of the Firedrake, and Captain Gilad Pellaeon of the Harbinger. With the help of Thrawn's TIE Defenders, the Chiss defeat the Grysks.[653]

Kanan Jarrus is killed sacrificing himself to save the rest of the Spectres.[654]
Ezra Bridger enters[619] the World Between Worlds[41] and saves Ahsoka Tano from Darth Vader's blade at Malachor. With the former Jedi's guidance under the eyes of Morai, he then lets go of his master as Tano did hers, resisting the temptation to prevent Kanan Jarrus' death and thus Darth Sidious and the dark side of the Force. Parting ways with Tano, Bridger returns from the mystical realm and rejoins the Spectres.[619]
Ronan gives an unfavorable report of Thrawn to Governor Tarkin, and Project Stardust becomes the sole recipient of funding over the TIE Defender program until Stardust is completed. Before such point, Vader is assigned to protect Stardust. Having received news that the situation on Lothal is "critical," Thrawn returns to the world with the escort of Captain Pellaeon aboard the Harbinger. Before leaving for Lothal, Thrawn takes the gamble of convincing Ronan to travel with Ar'alani back to the Chiss Ascendancy despite Ar'alani's warning that growing chaos amongst the Chiss threatened civil war. Thrawn also recommends Commander Faro to take command the Eleventh Fleet.[653]
With Thrawn's loyalty to the Empire in serious doubt, the Emperor orders him to return for a long talk after handling the rebellion on Lothal. Palpatine also tells Thrawn to reconstruct a part of the Lothal Jedi Temple within the Chimaera to tempt Ezra Bridger, and further instructs the Chiss to persuade Bridger to join him.[653]

Recalling his experience of being enslaved by Trandoshan hunters alongside other Wookiees,[676] Chewbacca frees the slaves on Andelm IV.[677]
While Chewbacca and Zarro are captured by Imperials, the latter are misled into thinking that Jaum is a member of the Rebellion and no longer desire to expand their reach to Andelm IV. After making their escape, Chewbacca and Zarro part ways on Andelm IV, though not before the Wookiee gives Zarro the medal he himself earned at the Battle of Yavin.[678]

Han Solo and Chewbacca take a step back from the rebel cause and return to smuggling. However, when given an offer too good to refuse by Leia Organa, Solo agrees to rescue[49] Alliance intelligence chief Airen Cracken's rebel spies—a network of informants assembled in the span of years with only one objective who, after completing that objective one month ago, began to be murdered by a traitor.[679]
Han Solo and Leia Organa rekindled their relationship after Solo chose serve the Rebellion, albeit with flair and arrogance, instead of living dishonestly as a smuggler doing odd jobs.
For the mission, Solo is to rescue the spies and capture the traitor while under the guise of competing in the Dragon Void race with the Millennium Falcon. With all of the spies aboard the Falcon, Solo competes in the race, though it is attacked by Imperial forces. Nevertheless, the Falcon perseveres, and its rebel crew discover the mole amongst them and detain the brainwashed traitor. While he could have gone through the race's endpoint—a gate that created a wormhole leading to the race's starting point—Solo instead allows Loo Re Anno, the last of her kind, to return home using the gate, which was created by Anno's kind for their exodus from the wider galaxy.[49]
Returning Han Solo's favor, Anno leads her people from between the seams of time and space to attack the Imperials pursuing the Dragon Void racers, allowing the latter to escape. Anno's people intends their return to be the last; before they leave the world forever.[49]
Having accomplished his mission, Solo returns to the Rebellion and realizes that he could not lie to himself and deny reality any longer; that he had to decide who he really is and what is worth living for.

The Empire relentlessly pursued the scattered rebel forces in the aftermath of their near-destruction on Hoth.
The Falcon arrives at a battle at Rendezvous Point Delta-Three. The new arrivals aide in the rebels' escape from Imperial forces led by Ellian Zahra,[744] who was reassigned by Darth Vader and the Emperor from a non-essential post at the spice mines of Kessel to hunt down remnants of the Rebellion.[745] Following the incident, Commander Zahra received explicit instructions from Lord Vader: Luke Skywalker was not to be harmed.[744]
After taking a fork-nosed ice worm fossil from Imperial forces on Hoth to sell to the Shadow University through Sava Estat, Chelli Lona Aphra embarks on a job to find the Rings of Vaale, which allegedly grants eternal fortune, immortality, and abilities to rival the most powerful Force user when used together. Doctor Aphra, archaeology student Detta Yao, the bounty hunter Black Krrsantan, and the mercenary "Just Lucky" pursue the rings against Ronen Tagge, scion of the Empire's aristocratic Tagge family. After losing years of research to Tagge at the Ruins of Kolkur, Professor Eustacia Okka and her droid, TA-418, who had done research on the rings, join Aphra aboard the Ark Angel III,[746] traveling to Vaale, Dianth, the home of the The Architects of Vaale who made the rings. They discover murals of High Republic iconography warning that when used independently, one ring would grant eternal life at the cost of the user's madness, while another would grant fortune at the cost of hastening the user's eventual demise.[747]
With the assistance of Just Lucky, Tagge's mercenaries trace Aphra's crew to Vaale, taking the Ring of Fortune before destroying the city of living bone with Aphra and her crew captured.[748] Aphra's crew is taken to Ronen Tagge's Private Penthouse in Canto Bight, where they kill Ronen, who was wearing the two rings, and escape from after stealing several priceless artifacts.[749]

Nakano Lash resurfaces near Kessel.[750] Having been informed by Aphra and Black Krrsantan on Burnin Konn that she has resurfaced, Bossk races to find Lash. The latter is also sought by her former protégé, Beilert Valance, as well as Boba Fett, who deviated from delivering Han Solo in carbonite to settle a personal score with Lash. Lash had torn apart the group of hunters years ago on Corellia, when she killed their client and the sole heir of the Mourner's Wail Syndicate, Khamus, as well as causing the death of Krynthia, the sole heir of the Unbroken Clan, instigating a continuation of violence between the two groups, which formed the three crime syndicates of Corellia with the addition of Lady Proxima's White Worms.[751]
Leaving her lover, Losha, and her peaceful life on the Moon of Logal Ri behind, T'onga pursues Lash to avenge the death of her brother, T'ongor, while Thisspiasian hunter Ooris Bynar pursues Lash with the help of the bondsman Syphacc.[750]
Amanaman agrees to notify Lando Calrissian should Boba Fett appear at Jabba's Palace. Jabba himself forces Calrissian to agree to spy on the Rebellion on his behalf with the threat of death.[155]
Having deduced alongside the rebel Fourth Division they have saved at Rendezvous Point Delta-Three that the Empire was using Alliance codes to hunt down rebels at rendezvous points, the crew of the Millennium Falcon leave the EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate Redemption at Backup Rendezvous Point Gamma-Nine to return to Cloud City.[752]
While the Liberty and Corona Squadron, previously at Rendezvous Point Delta-Three, did not join the rebels at Backup Rendezvous Point Gamma-Nine. Instead, Corona Squadron undertake a series of reconnaissance missions for the Rebellion, charting the planet D'Qar shortly before the Battle of Endor.[331] D'Qar would house only a small Alliance outpost during the Galactic Civil War before becoming the base of the Resistance decades later.[12]
Luke Skywalker seeks and fails to find his lost lightsaber, whilst Leia Organa, in her resolve to rescue Han Solo, infiltrates and is captured by the local Imperial garrison in her quest to learn more of the carbon-freezing mechanism.

Luke Skywalker parts ways with the crew of the Millennium Falcon. With R2-D2, he travels to the planet he envisioned earlier in search of a woman, whom Skywalker also witnessed in his vision, for help in his Jedi future and the fate of the Rebellion.[754]
Skywalker meets Verla, a former disciple the Jedi Ferren Barr who rejected the Jedi, the Sith, and the Force in order to live her life. On Luke Skywalker's promise that he would not disturb her again be it the will of the Force, Verla gives the aspiring Jedi the location of a yellow-bladed lightsaber for him to claim for the extinct Jedi Order. After a duel of wills against the phantom Grand Inquisitor, who found himself tied to a fate worse than death as he is bound by Darth Vader to the mortal realm despite dying years ago over Mustafar, Skywalker asserts his understanding that the Jedi believed in self-sacrifice; compassion—dying for a greater cause.[755]
Darth Vader and ZED-6-7 trail a transmitter from Padmé Amidala's apartment and travel to Vendaxa[741] after being led to a false finding of Luke Skywalker.[754] On Vendaxa, the pair encounter a group[741] of Amidalans—individuals seeking to avenge the mysterious death of Padmé Amidala[756]— being attacked by native fauna whilst investigating the cause of Amidala's death.[741]
Darth Vader and his droid finds the group's sole survivor: Sabé, a handmaiden of the late Padmé Amidala. Sabé's group intent on avenging Amidala's death, Vader tells the handmaiden that he as well sought revenge on those who hid the cause of Amidala's death, and Sabé joins Vader and leads him to Naboo, where she had hidden the security recordings taken from Amidala's apartment.[741]
Now on a hunt for the truth of Padmé Amidala's death, Darth Vader comes across Sabé's associates, former Royal Naboo Security Forces guards of Amidala Captains Gregar Typho and Tonra, who long suspected the senator was murdered after leaving for Mustafar during the last moments of the Clone Wars. With their presumption that Darth Vader had killed Padmé Amidala and Anakin Skywalker confirmed by the Sith Lord himself, Sabé's group ambush him, though their confrontation is interrupted by an[757] elder sando aqua monster.[57][756]
Darth Vader slays the sando aqua monster after fleeing with ZED-6-7, thereby increasing the species' chances of extinction within a century to eighty-three percent. Vader then leads his death trooper unit to battle the Amidalans, who guarded the tomb of Padmé Amidala under the leadership of Ric Olié. With memories of the group's leader teaching Anakin Skywalker to operate Amidala's Royal Naboo Starship surfacing, Vader spares Olié and proceeds to Amidala's tomb, although he is stopped by Sabé and other handmaidens of the former Naboo Queen and senator. Unable to kill them, he immobilizes Padmé Amidala's bodyguards and enters her tomb.[756]
Rejected by his son, the cyborg Vader struggled with his desire for power and his chosen destiny as a Jedi and current servitude to the Sith, tearing through his past only to be reminded of his losses.
Darth Vader and ZED-6-7 trace a med implant at Amidala's tomb to Polis Massa, which had been attacked and abandoned by this point. Vader and his droid are followed and attacked by the Amidalans, who are defeated. Finding a holorecording of his wife's death at the maternity ward, Vader destroys ZED-6-7 in his rage before wallowing in grief, hearing his lover's last words that there is still good in Anakin Skywalker as he returns to the Imperial Palace on Coruscant, where he submits to the Emperor.[758]
Mourner's Wail kills Unbroken Clan soldiers in a bombing on Chorgad. In retaliation, General Vukorah of the clan attacks[759] a Mourner's Wail spice run[760] in the Kessel Sector,[759] prompting the latter group to bomb a Caviness IV settlement.[759]
Ooris Bynar is killed by Nakano Lash after tracing the latter to Ruusan, and Bossk is left on the graveyard world of Galmerah by Boba Fett. Valance and T'onga reach Lash, who reveals that she only killed Khamus because they were sent to murder a pregnant Krynthia. Lash further reveals that she had been raising Khamus and Krynthia's child, Cadeliah, in the hope that she would unite the two warring syndicates as their joint heir.[760]
While T'onga's lets go of her desire for vengeance, she is mortally wounded by Boba Fett, who fulfills his desire to arrange Lash's death by leaving her on her starship, which is destroyed by Vukorah of the Unbroken Clan. Fett escapes aboard the Slave I, and Valance vows to protect Cadeliah as per Lash's dying wish, taking his ship, the Broken Wing, alongside Cadeliah.[761]
With the criminal underworld at war amidst the galactic struggle against the Empire, Valance had to navigate through fragments of his past while honoring the selfless acts of Nakano Lash, his mentor, and his savior, Han Solo.

For wallowing in grief, Vader is deposited by Darth Sidious to the black sands of Mustafar, on the spot where the Sith apprentice was immolated decades prior. To turn Vader's anger back into fear and the fear into pain, Sidious sends Ochi of Bestoon, assassin of the Sith, as a reminder.[768]
The Eye of Webbish Bog calls out to Vader, reminding the cyborg of his inner conflicts between his personal desire for power, his current servitude to the Sith and destined servitude to the Force, and his personal needs for family. After receiving a wayfinder to Exegol from the Eye,[769] Vader defeats Ochi's droid army and departs Mustafar holding Ochi captive in an escape pod retrofitted onto his green Jedi starfighter.[770]
Darth Vader and Ochi reach the vicinity of Exegol,[770] where they fly through an Imperial blockade led by Administrator Sly Moore as well as a creature of a summa-verminoth sub-species. After receiving a vision of his son, Luke Skywalker, striking him down and taking his place at the Emperor's side, Vader makes a forbidden use of the Force to subdue the beast, thereby violating his master's command. Through fear of the Emperor's plans, Vader had become angered and was fueled by hatred, leading to a demonstration of power whereby the cyborg gained control over the beast and rode it to Exegol's Sith Citadel.[771]
Vader confronts his master but is subdued by pain. Vader's beast lies dead, and Ochi loses his eyes; overwhelmed by the power of the Emperor, Vader chooses to yield to the latter as his servant. Vader, the Emperor, Ochi, Sly Moore, and Mas Amedda then leave Exegol—leaving its Sith cultists, minions, experiments, and a growing fleet of planet-destroying Star Destroyers.[772]

Starlight Squadron is established. Consisting of Wedge Antilles, Freyta Smyth, L'ulo L'ampar, Shara Bey, Evaan Verlaine, and Mart Mattin, it attempts to contact other rebel groups and establish new secret communications through the codes provided by the Autonomous Translator Module, Mark II linguistics droid, which is kept operational by Lobot.[775]
Lando Calrissian insisted on saving Lobot despite the latter's loss of mind and the lives of rebels being at stake.
Starlight Squadron finds the ruins of the Sixth Division instead and is ambushed by Imperial probe droids. Amidst the chaos, Lobot begins to die in his efforts to keep the rebels' linguistics droid operational. While Lando Calrissian remains adamant in telling Lobot to cease maintaining the droid, Kes Dameron, fearing for his love, Shara Bey, demands Calrissian to let Lobot die in exchange so that Bey may be saved.[775]
Calrissian is detained by order of Leia Organa. After secretly learning its language, C-3PO deactivates the Rebellion's linguistics droid in its refusal to yield its self-interest to save Lobot. With command of the droid's language, communications are reestablished with Starlight Squadron, which escapes from Zahra and her flagship, Tarkin's Will, by exploiting the Empire's disregard for its own droids.[776]
However, Shara Bey, Starlight's commanding officer, is captured by Zahra's forces. While a despaired Kes Dameron is counseled by Leia Organa, Lando Calrissian is reunited with Lobot and, seeing that the Rebellion would not care for them, offers to pay off his debt to Jabba the Hutt by stealing the deactivated linguistics droid and its embedded rebel codes.[776]

Mon Mothma orders members of Rebel High Command to convene on Zastiga. Aboard the Mellcrawler, Nien Nunb transports Leia Organa, Caluan Ematt, and C-3PO from Aymeric's ship to Zastiga, where they join with Luke Skywalker and R2-D2.[675]
Barely recovering from their defeat at Hoth, the Rebellion was forced to face the Empire's new Death Star.
On Zastiga, while Mon Mothma, Gial Ackbar, Airen Cracken, Crix Madine, Leia Organa, Carlist Rieekan, and a number of top admirals and generals—amongst them Nantz and Massa, as well as Veertag and Tantor—meet at a safe house to discuss the discovery of the second Death Star, Luke Skywalker, Wedge Antilles, and Nien Nunb meet for a discussion of how Nunb saved Antilles at Hagar Secundus.[675]
Luke Skywalker, who had rejected Antilles' offer for him to rejoin Red Squadron[811] and had been delaying his return to Yoda on Dagobah to await news of Han Solo, expects that he would return to the Redemption. Skywalker also tells Leia Organa of his need to master patience to become a Jedi.[675]
The next day, taking from Skywalker's lesson, Organa proposes Operation Yellow Moon to buy much-needed time for the Rebellion and the galaxy at the risk of her life. Mon Mothma approves of the proposal after telling Organa not to deny herself another chance at love; duty cannot provide the comfort love would bring.[675]
Rebels leave Zastiga the following day.[675]
Operation Yellow Moon; Aboard Nien Nunb's Mellcrawler, Leia Organa leads a faux Alliance recruiting mission in the Corva sector, nearly a hundred-thousand light years away from the second Death Star, that is meant to distract the Empire while the Rebellion gathers an armada at Sullust.[675]
Imperials led by Captain Khione garrison Basteel and Sesid in retaliation for Organa attempting to recruit for the Alliance on the two worlds, imposing greater fear and oppression on their populace in the goal of instilling absolute obedience.[675]
Unwilling to cause more lives of others to be lost while doing their duty for the fate of the Rebellion and the galaxy, Organa's crew decide to go beyong their mission parameters and assist in a civilian uprising against the Empire on Jaresh, ensuring that the local resistance succeeds.[675]
Organa's crew proceed to the Yellow Moon, over which rebel recruits from the Corva sector are set to rendezvous as arranged by the Rebel Alliance. The Mellcrawler broadcasts a message to the gathered rebels that they are only a distraction for a major upcoming Alliance battle elsewhere, and telling them to flee. As the rebels leave, Captain Khione's Imperial flagship, the Shieldmaiden, arrives and captures the Mellcrawler.[675]
Operation Yellow Moon taught that while duty was crucial, people struggled against the Empire for inter-personal love; whether to honor those who died in the conflict or to fight for a brighter future for those still living.
With the individual voluntary sacrifices of two members of Organa's crew, as well as a surprise return of the rebel recruits, the crew destroys the Shieldmaiden using the Mellcrawler as a bomb, escaping Khione's Star Destroyer with a stolen Imperial shuttle named Tydirium.[675]
Aboard the shuttle Tydirium, Leia Organa, Nien Nunb, and Kidi Aleri reach Kothlis, where they join Luke Skywalker. Skywalker reports that they had gathered that Han Solo is still in carbonite, held at Jabba's Palace.[675]
Iden Versio escapes from the Invincible Faith with Moff Raythe's message, in which Death Squadron is ordered to move to the far side of Endor as part of the Empire's plans to trap the Rebel Alliance during what the rebels think to be their surprise assault on the Emperor's new battle station.[812]
With his green-bladed lightsaber, Luke Skywalker leads a raid at Imperial Refining Platform M36 to secure an entire year's worth of fuel supplies for the Rebel Alliance. With the rebels skeptical of Skywalker for his Force abilities sometimes giving false positives of potential threats, the rebels refuse to heed Skywalker's call to risk jumping into hyperspace and are attacked by an Imperial Star Destroyer as a result. Skywalker resists Darth Sidious' telepathic urges to abandon the rebels for being weak and the temptation to leave the war to live a quiet life, rejoining the rebels aboard their transport. Controlling his anger that festered from his guilt of nearly abandoning the rebels, Skywalker assists their leader in helping the rebels escape to safety.[813]

The Alliance to Restore the Republic was founded in the Star Wars Rebels episode "Secret Cargo." Star Wars: On the Front Lines states that the event occurred two years before the Battle of Yavin, or in 2 BBY. Since the comic Rogue One - Cassian & K-2SO Special 1 and Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire features the Alliance as well as K-2SO, the events of both the comic and Secrets of the Empire took place after the Alliance's founding in 2 BBY and prior to the Battle of Scarif in 0 BBY, in which K-2SO was destroyed.

"Family Reunion – and Farewell" shows that Jacen Syndulla was born after the Liberation of Lothal and Ultimate Star Wars, New Edition states that he was born before the Battle of Scarif. Since The Star Wars Book states that Star Wars Rebels ends the same year as Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 0 BBY, whilst Galactic Atlas also dates the Battle of Scarif to 0 BBY, Jacen Syndulla must have been born in that same year.
Farnay's mother's died a year before the events of The Weapon of a Jedi: A Luke Skywalker Adventure, which takes place shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Since the year following the battle is established by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas to be 0 ABY, it can be calculated that Farnay's mother died one year before 0 ABY, which was 0 BBY according to the Galactic Atlas.
According to Ultimate Star Wars, New Edition, the Alliance to Restore the Republic was founded during the Galactic Civil War, and the Alliance's founding is dated to two years before the Battle of Yavin, or 2 BBY, by Star Wars: On the Front Lines. Thus the events the Alliance and its 61st Mobile Infantry took part in, including the battles mentioned in Battlefront: Twilight Company, must have taken place during or after 2 BBY.
Battlefront: Twilight Company establishes that the Sixty-First Mobile Infantry was deployed to Ferrok Pax prior to when Brand joined the company. Brand was a member of the Sixty-First by the time of the battle on Vir Aphshire, which occurred concurrent to the Battle of Yavin. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas establishes that the year in which the Battle of Yavin took place is 0 BBY/ABY, with events of the year that occurred prior to the battle being listed as 0 BBY. Thus, the Sixty-First must have been deployed to Ferrok Pax by 0 BBY.
In Battlefront: Twilight Company, the rebel trooper Hazram Namir refers to Brand as a bounty hunter during the battle on Vir Aphshire, which occurred concurrent to the Battle of Yavin. As "Inbrief" establishes that Brand's bounty hunter past was not known by other rebels until the battle of Allst Prime, the battle of Allst Prime must have taken place before the Battle of Yavin, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 0 BBY. Thus, the battle of Allst Prime had occurred by that year.
Battlefront: Twilight Company sets the battles at Mygeeto prior to when Hazram Namir joined the Sixty-First Mobile Infantry. Twilight Company also establishes that Namir was part of the company by the time of the Battle of Yavin, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to the end of 0 BBY. The battle of Mygeeto must therefore have occurred by 0 BBY.
The section of Battlefront: Twilight Company where the Battle of the Tower takes place is set two months prior to the Battle of Yavin, which marks the end of 0 BBY of the year 0 BBY/ABY per Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. The Battle of the Tower must have therefore occurred two months before the Battle of Yavin, in 0 BBY.
The flashback sequence involving an adolescent Bansu Ro in Tie Fighter 4 is set in troubling times, during the Imperial Senate's existence, and years before the death of the Emperor as mentioned in Tie Fighter 5. Since Star Wars: Galactic Atlas states that the Senate was dissolved in 0 BBY and dates the death of the Emperor to 4 ABY, it can be deduced that the flashback sequence takes place around 0 BBY.

Doctor Aphra 39 depicts an intact rebel base on Hoth, and is set prior to Empire Ascendant 1, which in turn took place before the Battle of Hoth. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas states that Echo Base was constructed and destroyed in 3 ABY, and places the Battle of Hoth in the same year, meaning the events of Doctor Aphra 39 are set in 3 ABY. Thus, events set shortly after and prior to Doctor Aphra 39, including those of Doctor Aphra issues 37—40 and Empire Ascendant 1, must also take place in 3 ABY. Since Doctor Aphra 40 establishes that the Empire was delayed in their attack on the rebels on Hoth by a few weeks, the events of Doctor Aphra 37—40 and Empire Ascendant 1 also took place weeks from the Battle of Hoth.

Shattered Empire 2 places the events of Operation: Cinder on Naboo twenty days after the Battle of Endor. Shattered Empire 3 depicts this raid as taking place concurrently, so the date can be extrapolated from the second issue.
Shattered Empire 3
Shattered Empire 4 states that the mission to Vetine occurred three months after the Battle of Endor, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 4 ABY. Additionally, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary states that the New Republic was officially founded from the Rebel Alliance one year after the Battle of Endor, and twenty-nine years before the Starkiller Incident, which Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY, thereby placing the formation of the New Republic from the Rebel Alliance in 5 ABY. Since the Alliance participated in the mission to Vetine in Shattered Empire 4, the time of 3 months after the Battle of Endor must have also taken place in 4 ABY.

As such, Organa's training must have taken place in 4 ABY, and specifically in between her wedding and the birth of Ben Solo. Moreover, Aftermath alludes to Organa not having been trained in the ways of the Force, thus the chronological placement of Organa's training as after the events of Aftermath.

Star Wars: Galactic Atlas says Shara Bey and Kes Dameron moved to Yavin 4 in 5 ABY. Before the Awakening dates the move to 6 months after the Battle of Endor.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary states that the New Republic was officially founded from the Rebel Alliance one year after the Battle of Endor, and twenty-nine years before the Starkiller Incident, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY, thereby placing the formation of the New Republic from the Rebel Alliance in 5 ABY.
StarWars.com In Shadow Fall, the Dark Secrets of Alphabet Squadron Revealed on StarWars.com (backup link) establishes that Shadow Fall takes place approximately half a year after the Battle of Endor. Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know establishes that a standard year was 365 days long, while the sixty-first issue of Star Wars: Build the Millenium Falcon sets the length of a standard month at thirty-five days, with half a year therefore being equal to approximately five months. Furthermore, Before the Awakening states that Kes Dameron and Shara Bey moved to Yavin 4 around six months after the Battle of Endor, with Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dating the move to 5 ABY. Therefore, Shadow Fall must also be set around that year.
Aftermath: Empire's End
Phasma
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary states that Luke Skywalker began searching for lost lore of the Force twenty-nine years before the Starkiller Incident, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore, Skywalker began his search in 5 ABY.
The epilogue of "Family Reunion – and Farewell" occurs after the end of the Galactic Civil War, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 5 ABY, so the epilogue must take place during or after that year. The Liberation of Lothal occurs prior to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which the Galactic Atlas dates to 0 BBY, so the event must take place during or prior to that year. The Liberation takes place between "Wolves and a Door" and "Family Reunion – and Farewell"'s epilogue, which Star Wars: Women of the Galaxy establishes there is a five-year gap between. Therefore, the epilogue must take place in 5 ABY, after the end of the Galactic Civil War.
SWResistanceLogo.jpg Star Wars Resistance – "The Recruit"
According to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, Rose Tico was twenty-four years old one year after the Starkiller Incident. Since Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Incident to 34 ABY, Tico was born in 11 ABY. Since The Last Jedi: Bomber Command states that Paige Tico was five years older than Rose, the former could be calculated to have been born in 6 ABY.

Phasma takes place a few weeks before the beginning of Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire, which begins during the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, dated to 34 ABY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. SWInsider.png "Resistance Revisited" – Star Wars Insider 190 establishes that the events of Star Wars Resistance Season One take place thirty years after the Battle of Endor, which corresponds to 34 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas, and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary places the beginning of Star Wars Resistance half a year prior to The Force Awakens. Therefore, 34 ABY begins at least half a year prior to The Force Awakens, so Phasma must be set between the beginning of Resistance and The Force Awakens, thereby placing it in 34 ABY. Phasma takes place a few weeks before the beginning of Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire, which begins during the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which is dated to 34 ABY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. "Resistance Revisited" – Star Wars Insider 190 establishes that the events of Star Wars Resistance Season One take place thirty years after the Battle of Endor, which corresponds to 34 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas, and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary places the beginning of Star Wars Resistance half a year prior to Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens. Therefore, the year 34 ABY begins at least half a year prior to Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, and since a few weeks is shorter than half a year, Phasma must be set between "The Recruit" and Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, thereby placing it in 34 ABY. Phasma establishes that Phasma is the same age as Siv, who in a chapter set twelve years before the present day events, is stated to be sixteen. Therefore, Siv and Phasma were both born on Parnassos in 6 ABY.
According to Star Wars: The Force Awakens novelization, the Millennium Falcon was stolen years after Battle of Jakku, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 5 ABY. Since "Flight of the Falcon, Part 5: Grand Theft Falcon" features the theft of the Falcon, the earliest the comic could be set in is 7 ABY. Also, the Millennium Falcon had already been stolen during the events of Last Shot, which Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary dates to 27 years before the Hosnian Cataclysm. Since the Cataclysm is dated to 34 ABY by Galactic Atlas, Last Shot takes place in 7 ABY. Therefore, the events of "Flight of the Falcon, Part 5: Grand Theft Falcon," which includes the theft of the Falcon, took place in 7 ABY.

SWInsider.png "A Certain Point of View" – Star Wars Insider 202 further dates the second rescue of Grogu—depicted in "Chapter 16: The Rescue"—to 9 ASW4 as well. The events of Chapters 1–16 must therefore take place in 9 ABY.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary gives HF-3311's age during the events of Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker as twenty-five years old. Since the events of The Rise of Skywalker are dated to 35 ABY by The Star Wars Book, HF-3311 must have been born in 10 ABY.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens: The Visual Dictionary states that Finn is 23 years old during the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which are dated to 34 ABY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. Therefore, Finn was born in 11 ABY. Since Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary states that Finn was abducted from his family at the age of three by the First Order, he must have been abducted in 14 ABY..
According to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, Luke Skywalker began rebuilding the Jedi Order with Ben Solo as his first student 19 years before the Starkiller Incident. Since The Star Wars Book dates the beginning of Solo's training to 15 ABY, the Order must also have been restored in that year.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary states that Kadara Calrissian was abducted nineteen years before the Starkiller Incident, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore, she must have been abducted in 15 ABY.
A Crash of Fate takes place after the Hosnian Cataclysm, which is dated to 34 ABY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. As the novel takes place on the day before and day of Izal Garsea's eighteenth birthday, it can be deduced that she was born around 16 ABY.
A Crash of Fate
StarWars-DatabankII.png Torra Doza in the Databank (backup link)
Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire begins concurrent with the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, then jumps four months ahead to the Resistance establishing its presence on Batuu, and concludes with an epilogue set several weeks later, when the First Order occupies the planet and the Battle of Batuu begins. Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is also set during the occupation of Batuu and depicts the Battle of Batuu via the attraction Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. The Star Wars Book dates the Battle of Batuu to 34 years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 34 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary also places the Battle of Batuu six months after The Force Awakens, which Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore everything within Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and any related tie-in media depicting the Battle of Batuu, or set between The Force Awakens and the battle, must also occur in 34 ABY. Jac Lodain was sixteen years old in A Crash of Fate, thus placing his birth in 18 ABY.
According to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, Poe Dameron joined the Spice Runners of Kijimi 16 years before the Starkiller Incident. Since Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Incident to 34 ABY, Poe Dameron joined the Spice Runners of Kijimi in 18 ABY.
Resistance Reborn
Skywalker: A Family at War states that the mission to Elphrona took place the year Ben Solo turned fourteen. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary establishes that Solo was born twenty-nine years prior to the Hosnian Cataclysm, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore, the mission took place in 19 ABY.
Join the Resistance
According to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, Luke Skywalker and Landonis Balthazar Calrissian undertook a mission to Pasaana after the murder of Rey's parents shortly after they left their daughter on Jakku thirteen years before the Starkiller Incident, which is dated to 34 ABY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. Therefore, the mission to Pasaana must have occurred in 21 ABY.
Phasma takes place a few weeks before the beginning of Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire which begins during the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which is dated to 34 ABY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. As Egil is killed on Parnassos in a chapter set twelve years before the main story of Phasma, it can be deduced that he was killed around 22 ABY.
According to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, Poe Dameron left the Spice Runners of Kijimi and returned home 11 years before the Starkiller Incident. Since Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Incident to 34 ABY, Poe Dameron must have left the Spice Runners in 23 ABY.

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook
Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire begins concurrent with the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, then jumps four months ahead to the Resistance establishing its presence on Batuu, and concludes with an epilogue set several weeks later, when the First Order occupies the planet and the Battle of Batuu begins. Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is also set during the occupation of Batuu and depicts the Battle of Batuu via the attraction Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. The Star Wars Book dates the Battle of Batuu to 34 years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 34 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary also places the Battle of Batuu six months after The Force Awakens, which Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore everything within Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and any related tie-in media depicting the Battle of Batuu, or set between The Force Awakens and the battle, must also occur in 34 ABY.
